RTD Accuracy and Temperature Drift Specifications
When you are using 100Ω or 200Ω platinum RTDs with 0.5 mA excitation current,
refer to the important note on the next page about module accuracy.
RTD Type
Accuracy
(4)
(0.5 mA
Excitation)
(4) The accuracy values assume that the module was calibrated within the specified temperature range of 0°C to 60°C
(32°F to 140°F).

(1) The digits following the RTD type represent the temperature coefficient of resistance (α), which is defined as the resistance
change per ohm per °C. For instance, Platinum 385 refers to a platinum RTD with α = 0.00385 ohms/ohm - °C or simply
0.00385/°C.
